================================================================================================
Overview:
A monster of a mech built with 31.5 tons of Hardened armor. Lowered from the RCK-1 variant
for this missile boat.
To ensure better pilot survival, the cockpit and life supports are armored to ensure that
even attempted assassination of the mechwarrior is not an easy task.
A standard engine ensures that it is not taken out until the last remaining armor and endo
steel structure is removed from it to kill it.
4 Clan grade LRM20s with Artemis V system provides adequate firepower given its durability,
their 8 tons of ammo are protected from ammo explosions with CASE II systems in the arms.
A Nova CEWS allows the mech to communicate with faster mechs within its network to provide
even more accurate targeting data for its missiles.
Like other Rocks, an IS grade TSM system ensures that it regains some of its lost speed from
the hardened armor when it is running hot.
A total of 10 clan DHS means that all 4 of these massive weapons can fire with low regard to
heat, and provided the mechwarrior is careful enough to manage the heat of his weapons, the
TSM should give it some edge in movement in prolonged fights. But given the range profile of
its weapons, it is thought more of as a leftover from the other designs.
